We actually have a design site where we ask for user feedback and UX/UI improvement suggestions: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/GIMP/Design/gimp-ux/-/work_items https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/GIMP/Design/gimp-ux/-/work_it... I share this link a lot in the hopes that more people take us up on it, and provide specifics on where problem areas are for their workflow. So many people use GIMP in so many different ways, even something that seems "obviously bad" to one group might not be encountered by others.

Why not add a "Photoshop" theme? You select it in some option or on install, and it turns into something looking like Photoshop.

  We're working on an extension platform, and once that's up and running we'll probably reach out to PhotoGIMP developers (https://github.com/Diolinux/Photogimp https://github.com/Diolinux/Photogimp) and see if they want to host it there. Then people can easily download and install it directly in GIMP, hopefully making everyone happy.

Thoughts on posting a UX and/or workflow related Issue under Teams/GIMP/Design/gimp-ux that would pretty much just recite an existing Issue from GNOME/gimp?

  One of our contributors does a lot of upkeep work, and he normally ports UX-related issues from the code tracker to the UX repo. Not 100% perfect, but it helps keep the focus in the right spot.

    Am I reading this right in that I should avoid doing it myself then?

      If you think it's UX related concern, then I'd recommend posting it on the UX tracker first. But even if it's posted in the "wrong place", it'll likely be moved to the right one after it's looked at, if that makes sense? However, if you see an older issue that could use some UX design discussion, feel free to suggest it be moved.
